Mayor Saves Bus Routes and Expands Free Travel | Leicester News

Airway Nine bus route saved at the last minute thanks to East Midlands Mayor Claire Ward, who brokered a temporary deal keeping service running until early next year—after Diamond Buses threatened to cut it from Ashby onward. Ward also secured the Number Nineteen route until April 2025 and is expanding free teen travel to ages 16–18, while thanking locals for speaking up.
